You can enter the components manually if you want.

You enter the to-be-manufactured material, then you switch to the item details to the material tab, there is a button behind them you can enter the components if you have no bill of material.

Can you explain a bit the background to this request?

I am not with a SAP system this week, so I cant tell you if this message can be made a warning of info at all.

you can try to see it yourself. go SE91, enter message number and list all messages, select the message and click the where used button.

SAP will give you the programs that issue this message.

Reading the source code you canknow whether the message is a hardcoded error or if it canbe conditioned via the message attributes tables.

But for me it does not make any sense to have a subcontract order without components, as the nature of this functinality is not given without components. Please explain your process, maybe you are on the wrong track and it can be solved somehow different

me154 = Not possible to determine any component

Check in OMCQ & change from E to W, so you will just get a warning message.

Does a subcontract order without any component make any sense?

Hi,

First of all if you don't want to maintain the components for the material your getting from Subcontracting after processing then why are you using "Standard" Item Category?

Second thing, it is not possible to make Message ME154 as Warning through config also since it has control over the Subcontracting Process.

No its not possible.

Once you select Item category a sL , system needs a BOM. The only way to get rid of the error is to either maintain the BOM in CS01 or by maintaining it manually in the PO itself but selecting Components button.
